Toni,

You might want to get a book by a blind soldier who lost his eye sight in Iraq. He is the first blind soldier to keep his command after becoming blind.

It sounds like he may have some good insights into dealing with the new person after injury. His name is Capt Scott Smiley Here is a link to his book on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Hope-Unseen-St...5560406&sr=1-1

My wife saw him interviewed and was impressed by him.

Now, just as you now have a new skill to help you put your thoughts down on the computer, you will have many more skills to learn now that you are ready to train the new you. ?? Does that make sense??

I have tricks for those idiotic call directors and many more mundane ADLs (Activities of Daily Living)

I get a lot done for someone with memory functions in the bottom 5 to 12% level of the US population. I have learned to not bang my head against the wall trying to do the impossible (at least for my brain).
